Good reminder that, Fresh off a 12-1 season, Notre Dame voluntarily suspended their starting QB Everett Golson for the entirety of the 2013 fall semester for cheating on a test.
Texas Tech is not only shamelessly allowing a player who bet on his own games to play for their team…they appear to have rigged the local courts to make sure it happened.
The opinions and moral posturing of Joey Mac and Texas Tech administration should never be taken seriously.
NEW: Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko on College Football Playoff expansion talk:
"What does Mike Elko want? 40. Then I won’t get fired. It's ok to make it hard to get to the playoff."
Elko continued: "None of us are answering for the good of the sport. We’re answering for the good of ourselves."

With the final pick of Thursday night’s first round, the Seahawks selected Notre RB Jadarian Price.
There never had been a year in which the top two running backs were selected from the same school. Now both Jeremiyah Love and Price accomplished that feat for the Fighting Irish.
Just my opinion from watching the last 6-8 weeks of the season:
It was obvious Miami had national title level of potential.
It was obvious Notre Dame had national title level of potential.
It was obvious Alabama did not have national title level of potential.
Bama didn’t belong in the CFP. They did win a game, over an OU team that also didn’t belong in the CFP but had a win over Bama. Sorry, these are facts.
The committee watched Bama blow a 17-0 lead to a terrible Auburn team, winning by 7 with 280 total yards and moved them ahead of ND. Then watched them embarrass themselves with -3 yards rushing and a 21 point loss to Georgia and did not drop them. Tonight’s rout is the result.
To be clear, I think I speak for all ND fans when I say:
The issue was NEVER w Miami getting in. It was ALWAYS w Bama.
Watching this Rose Bowl (🤢)…
I hope folks can emphasize why we “took our ball and went home” re: the Pop Tart Bowl
Beyond impressed w/ IU. Envious even.
Alabama is an overrated team that got the benefit of the doubt because they beat a bunch of other overrated teams. This outcome should shock no one. The SEC had no business getting 5 teams in this year. None.
If Georgia or Ole Miss don’t win their semifinal matchup the SEC’s only playoff wins in 2 years will be over other SEC teams. The only “SEC” team to win over a non-SEC is a team they stole from the Big 12
